When the bond was\nclosed, says Mr. Goldsmith, the\nbonders laughed at the development which had been done. This\nconsisted of shafts on top of a\nmountain, and the present holders\nare driving a tunnel which will\ntap the lead at a depth of at least\n1,000 feet, enabling them to eliminate the rawhide haul and ship\nboth summer and winter. The\nAjax mine in the same district is\nalso again working.\nIx war timeB you cannot beat a\npolicy oE iron, brass and blood,\nwith a policy of milk, water, mush\nand grapejuice.\nThe United States has to keep\none eye on Japan, the other on\nGermany, and its nose on Mexico.\nHence Woodrow's trail is not\nstrewn with any undue amount of\nroses.\nIn a short time a smelter tributary to Hazelton, would stimulate\nmining in that district. In the\nmeantime concentrators might be\nused to advantage until the camp\nhas a greater producing capacity.\nAinsworth-Slocan Mines\nWhen the red finale of war\ncomes to Europe, look out for the\nyellow peril 1 That is one reason\nwhy Uncle Sam does not take off\nhis coat, and jump into the European horror. He is keeping cases\non the cards that are still in the\nbox.\nFor the first time in tho great\nlost west we mixed up in a cent\ndeal the other day by passing a\nred-faced coin at the postoffice.\nLittle did we think 20 years ago\nwhen we coined the phrase,- In the\ncent belt, that the formation would\nspread so far west in such a short\ntime. The cent is not yet very\npopular out west, except with the\nchildren who attend Sunday school.\nThey also make better poker chips\nthan beans.\nIn The Lardeau\nCars were spotted at the Lucky\nJim siding on Friday for the loading of zinc ore to be shipped to the\nother side and it is likely that a\nquantity of concentrating ore will\nsoon be moved to the Ivanhoe concentrator to be treated. Last week\nthe construction of a hoist to get\nthe ore up to to the concentrator\nwas commenced.\nA recent shipment from 12-\nMile was made by Scott Thorn-\nberg, consisting of over seven tonB\nof ore from the Helen. This property was developed a little by\nEnglish brothers, but apparently\nthe ore body opened up and which\nhad an encouraging appearance,\nwas not much more than a \"blow-\nout,\"as it did not hold.\nAt the present time S. J. Tow-\ngood's pack train is bringing down\na car of antimony from the Alps-\nAlturus, up the north fork of Carpenter creek. This property is\nowned and operated by the W. J.\nMcMillan interests of Vancouver.\nThe ore is shipped all the\nway to England for treatment.\nSeven men are employed at the\nproperty.\nThe last car of zinc shipped by\nthe Rambler-Cariboo netted over\n$4,000, which is about a record for\nreceipts from a car of zinc concentrates shipped by any Slocan property. The silver values in this\ncar amounted . only to about\ntwent-five ounces per ton. The\nzinc product of the mill is now being stored pending the makings of\nshipping arrangements. This runs\nat least forty per cent. zinc. One\nhundred and fifty feet of development was accomplished during\nJune.\nDrifting is in progress on the\nNoble Five vein in both directions\nfrom the point where the long\ntunnel of the Noble Five mine encountered the lead three or four\nweeks ago, according to Paul M.\nLincoln, superintendent of the\nDuusmuir silver-lead property,\nwhich is located at Cody, a short\ndistance above Sandon. When\nreached by the long tunnel, the\nvein was found to be some sixteen\nfeet wide, strongly mineralized,\nbut not, carrying any ore body at\nthe point of contact. The indications are that ore will be picked\nup at no distant date by drifts now\nbeing run both ways, and it is intended also to uprais.. and tap the\nupper workings of the mine. The\nlead is said to be very strong and\npromising. The big crosscut is\n1,900 feet in length, gives a vertical\ndepth below the former workings\nof 1,200 feet ind will make it. possible to work the entire property\nin freedom from danger of show-\nslides, which were troublesome\naround the upper workings. The\nportal of the tunnel is located\nabout a thousand feet above tbe\nconcentrator and lower tram term\ninal, so that the lower half of the\ntramway, with very little expense,\ncan be made use of for the trans\nportation of ore to the mill,\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDKaslo\nKootenaian.\nSubscription List\nFor the purpose of presenting a machine gun to the 54th Kootenay-Boundary\nBattalion from the citizens of Greenwood\nand district.\nPreviously acknowledged I1.r49.00\nA.
